# PhishDestroy threat dossier — ledger.com.af ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-31 11:45:03 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ledger.com.af/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: Ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 23/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, Criminal IP, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, DNS8, Ermes, ESET, Emsisoft, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, Netcraft, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot URLQuery: 100 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist Victim re-reports (public form): 1 ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 198.54.132.28 (CA, Toronto) ASN: ASAS11878 tzulo, inc. Hosting org: AS11878 tzulo, inc. Registrar: Web Commerce Communications Limited Nameservers: ["ns2.ultahost.com", "ns3.ultahost.com", "ns1.ultahost.com", "ns4.ultahost.com"] Registered: 2026-01-29 Expires: 2027-01-29 Page title: Hardware Wallet & Crypto Wallet - Security for Crypto | Ledger ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-04-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: e91ffb242219419ea97b1433500f5b6c7564d88e0061bf57cf8a15e81a429fea Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - autodiscover.ledger.com.af - cpanel.ledger.com.af - cpcalendars.ledger.com.af - cpcontacts.ledger.com.af - mail.ledger.com.af - webdisk.ledger.com.af - webmail.ledger.com.af - whm.ledger.com.af - www.ledger.com.af ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-01-29 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-07 09:04:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-31 13:20:39 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-16 00:04:32 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c3748-63cb-741d-987b-e20c616dc93b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/ledger.com.af crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.ledger.com.af Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=ledger.com.af AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/ledger.com.af URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/ledger.com.af/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 00:21:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies ledger.com.af as a high-risk brand impersonation domain targeting Ledger, a well-known cryptocurrency hardware wallet provider. The site mimics Ledger’s branding and page title, "Hardware Wallet & Crypto Wallet - Security for Crypto | Ledger," to deceive users into believing it is an official platform. This poses significant risk to users seeking authentic Ledger products or services. The domain ledger.com.af was registered on February 21, 2026, using the Web Commerce Communications WebCC registrar. It resolves to IP address 198.54.132.28 and is detected on multiple security blocklists, including those from AlienVault OTX and three additional threat intelligence sources. VirusTotal analysis indicates a considerable portion of security vendors classify it as malicious, confirming its potential for phishing or fraudulent activities. Currently, ledger.com.af remains active and continues to impersonate the Ledger brand. PhishDestroy strongly advises users and organizations to avoid interacting with this domain, employ updated security tools, and monitor for any attempts to share sensitive information via this site. Immediate reporting and blocking of this domain are recommended to mitigate exposure to phishing threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260207-3D1A4A Favicon MD5: ae21ecb25616d3be96e987fe7af84d6e TLS cert SHA-256: e91ffb242219419ea97b1433500f5b6c7564d88e0061bf57cf8a15e81a429fea ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ledger.com.af/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ledger.com.af Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
